Episode 40: What if I Die During my Divorce?? With Lauren Wolven

What happens if you die during your divorce process?? 

What happens to your children? 

What happens to your money?

 

We are talking with Lauren Wolven, she’s a partner in Trusts and Estates with Levenfeld Pearlstein in Chicago, IL. 

 

Here’s the good news: There are several steps you can take to ensure that you’ve covered all of your bases, just in case you die during or soon after your divorce.

 

We cover a lot of ground on this episode, including:

 

1. How do I change my power of medical attorney during a divorce?

       

2. How do I change my Life Insurance policy when going through a divorce?

 

3. How do I change my Will when I'm going through a divorce?

**How Not to Suck at Divorce Pro Tip**:

Don’t buy your Will template from Etsy. (this started as a joke, until we realized that it's actually possible)

 

And remember, all roads lead back to hiring the RIGHT team to support you during your divorce process. 

 

The RIGHT divorce attorney, the RIGHT estate attorney, and the RIGHT podcast to help you along the way!


Make sure you listen all the way to the end of the episode to hear some crazy stories about what some people leave as their final wishes!
